I'm a native Oklahoman and currently the pop music critic for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and DFW.com. A product of the University of Oklahoma, I've been writing about movies, music, books and pop culture for over a decade. There isn't really any film genre I outright despise, but -- and my wife LOVES this -- I'll admit it takes a lot of arm-twisting to get me settled in front of a romantic comedy.
